[PATCH 00/12] Introduce housekeeping subsystem v3

[Frederic Weisbecker <fweisbec@gmail.com>]

So this time I didn't change the implementation of isolcpus which relies
on NULL domains, I only pulled it to the housekeeping subsystem.

Summary of changes from v2:

* "isolcpus=" takes flags, which allows us to control nohz through it.
  For example:
	isolcpus=nohz,1-7			-- enable nohz_full to CPUs 1 to 7
	isolcpus=nohz,domain,1-7	-- enable nohz_full and isolate CPUs 1 to 7

  If no flags are passed, the default flag is "domain", so the kernel
  parameter is backward compatible.

  More flags should be added in the future to isolate a CPU from more
  details. We just need to debate how finegrained we want that.

  We also want to make sure that what is passed to isolcpus is later
  modifiable through cpusets.

* Remove workqueue and kthread isolation, we'll think about those later
  once we have an interface for them in the isolcpus flags.
